DS3608ER/DS3678ER CORDED AND CORDLESS EXTENDED RANGE 2D IMAGER
DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER Ultra-Rugged Scanner
UNSTOPPABLE PERFORMANCE FOR EXTENDED RANGE
1D/2D BARCODE SCANNING
Every day, workers in your warehouse scan thousands of barcodes to ensure order accuracy and on-time delivery. Their
productivity depends on the quality of the scanner you put in their hands. If your workers need to capture 1D and 2D barcodes
near and far, with the corded DS3608-ER and cordless DS3678-ER scanner, you can give them the best — unmatched
rugged design, unmatched scanning performance and unrivaled manageability. The advanced imager delivers lightning-fast
capture of any 1D or 2D barcode displayed on a screen or printed on a label in virtually any condition, nearer and farther than
any scanner in this class —from 3 in./7.6 cm to as far as 70 ft./.21.4 m away. The ultra-rugged design is practically indestructible
— ideal for punishing environments. The DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER couldn’t be easier and less time-consuming to deploy and
manage. And when it comes to cordless technology, the DS3678-ER is in a class of its own. The DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER —
the unstoppable performance you need to maximize workforce productivity and throughput in your operations.
Superior scanning range
The advanced imager reads 1D and 2D
barcodes printed on a label up to 60
percent closer and 35 percent farther
than similar models in this class, with an
extraordinary scanning range from 3 in. to
70 ft. (7.6 cm to 21.4 m). Now, one scanner
can easily read barcodes on a picklist in
hand and on the uppermost shelves of your
warehouse racks, as well as extra-wide
codes just a hands-length away — even
if they are under shrinkwrap, damaged,
dirty or poorly printed. The result? Workers
can capture barcodes as fast as they can
pull the trigger for first-time every time
scanning — and extraordinary productivity.
Ultra-rugged — the most
indestructible design in its class
The DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER is our most
rugged scanner yet, with the highest drop,
tumble and sealing specification in its class.
The DS3608-ER/DS3678-ER is built to
survive an 8 ft./2.4 m drop to concrete —
THE DS3608ER/DS3678ER  GIVE YOUR WORKERS SINGLE SCANNER SIMPLICITY FOR NEAR AND FAR
BARCODE CAPTURE WITH THE ULTRARUGGED SCANNER THAT REDEFINES RELIABILITY.

23 percent more durable than any other
scanner in this class. The DS3608-ER/
DS3678-ER operates reliably after 5,000
tumbles, simulating the real-world tumbling
that occurs with a drop. Both models are
dust proof, spray proof and waterproofed
to IP67 — they can be sprayed down with
jetting water and even submersed in water
for up to 30 minutes.
Easy management with our
complimentary industry-best tools
Remotely configure scanners, upgrade
firmware, format data properly for your
back end and monitor PowerPrecision+
battery statistics and more with 123Scan
2
and Scanner Management Service (SMS).
Multi-code captures and processes
up to 20 barcodes simultaneously
Many labels have multiple barcodes
your workers need to capture. Now, one
press of the trigger captures the right
barcodes and applies the unique data
format required for each one for instant
transmission to your backend systems —
all with complete control over the order
barcodes are processed.
Faster pick-list processing
Users can easily select and capture an
individual barcode from any pick list.
Ready for the freezer
The DS3608-ER and DS3678-ER are built
from the ground up to handle extreme
cold. Their unique plastics, cables and
components are designed to handle
freezing temperatures without becoming
brittle— making these scanners ideal for
use in freezers and outdoor yards*.
A Bluetooth model in a class of its
own for superior cordless freedom
Bluetooth 4.0 (Low Energy) provides
lightning fast wireless communication and
maximum energy eciency.
Our Zebra Wi-Fi Friendly Mode eliminates
the wireless interference that Bluetooth
devices can often create in your
Wi-Fi environment.
The ‘go anywhere’ rugged cradle oers
superior versatility and durability. The
DS3678-ER is the only scanner in its family
to oer a cradle with IP65 sealing. And
its industrial charging contacts withstand
250,000 insertions.
The first-in-its-class battery ‘charge
gauge’ and Bluetooth status LED make
it easy to monitor battery power as well
as Bluetooth connectivity.
The PowerPrecision+ battery delivers
the ultimate in battery power and
management. You get 50 percent more
battery capacity compared to competitive
models, plus visibility into a wealth of
battery health-related data, including
charge cycles consumed, current battery
status and a State of Health meter, which
identifies if batteries are healthy and holding
a full charge or ready for retirement.
